<p>Thanks for the replies. I often see many ccers commenting on a family’s income as being significantly above the median family income of $53,046. Yet a $53,046 income puts the family in the POOR camp. A more realistic figure to survive in many expensive areas of the US would require an income well above $53,046.</p>
<p>It would be nice if ccers were more honest about the income needed to live in certain areas of the US and not throw around the 53k figure.</p>
